ORIGIN

This 1966 Volvo 122S is finished in Horizon Blue over a black interior and powered by a B18D inline-four, which is paired with an automatic gearbox. The seller acquired the car from the previous owner of 12 years in 2018, and it is reported to have resided in Arizona for over three decades. Modifications include Panasport-style wheels, a wooden roof rack, and a Weber carburetor. A recent service included new spark plugs and wires, a replacement fuel pump, water pump, and fan belt, as well as an engine oil change, ignition timing adjustment, and a valve clearance check. This Amazon is now offered at no reserve with the original glove compartment books, a few service records, and a clear Washington title indicating a 1967 model year.

Volvo only offered Horizon Blue (89) for their Amazon lineup in 1965 and 1966. This example is believed to have been partially repainted sometime in the 1980s, and imperfections include checking, staining, dings, and chips. Closeups of the trim, brightwork, and lights are provided in the gallery below.

A set of aftermarket 8-spoke alloy wheels come fitted, along with a custom wooden roof rack. The glass is reported to wear factory etchings.

The cabin is trimmed in black vinyl over the factory-installed rubber floor mat. Photos of the door panels, headliner, and rear bench are provided in the gallery below. The passenger seat is believed to have been reupholstered.

A factory AM radio and two-spoke steering wheel remain installed. A push-button has been added for the starter, and the horn and heater fan are currently inoperable. 74k miles are shown on the odometer.

The B18D inline-four is equipped with a single downdraft Weber carburetor and paired with a BW35 automatic transmission. A recent compression test revealed over 150 psi across all four cylinders as pictured in the gallery below. An M41 with overdrive or M40 transmission, shortened driveshaft, and pedal assembly are being included with the sale, should the new owner like to convert the car to a manual.

Photos of the underside are also provided in the gallery, and the seller’s video is attached below.
